The media, news and journalism has taken many different forms in the last decade. Truth will always find an outlet...or create one. As the mainstream corporate media continues its rapid decline before our eyes, independent outlets, websites and journalists continue to spring up in new and creative forms. The formation and need for Wikileaks to exist has juxtaposed the censorship and decline of mainstream news outlets. Comprising an integral part of the 'new/truth media' paradigm being solidified before our eyes, Wikileaks and many other outlets and individuals are filling a void left behind by corporate-consolidated news companies and quietly censored mainstream media discussion, investigation and stories.

Although we shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth, many are patiently watching and waiting for Wikileaks to release damning, internal evidence against big pharma documents, big agrochemical companies and suppression of new energy technologies. Until such a time, the irrevocable damage Assange and Wikileaks is doing to power and privilege is historical. To date, the information released by Wikileaks has directly forced an unprecedented nine individuals from the Democratic National Committee to step down due their involvement in illegal, amoral and/or unethical actions. Before the 31st United Nations Human Rights Council meeting in Geneva, 500 human rights organizations, law professors, former UN office holders, and high-profile rights defenders including four Nobel Peace Prize laureats and a Pulitzer Prize winner, have urged the governments of Sweden and the United Kingdom to respect the United Nations’ decision to free Julian Assange.

"An important part of civil liberties is respect for the First Amendment and the rule of law and that has broken down under the Obama administration and Hillary Clinton was part of that process. She has, and the Obama administration has, attempted to prosecute more journalists and journalistic sources under The Espionage Act, that's the same Espionage Act that she was being investigated under, than all previous presidencies combined." -Julian Assange
